Youtube vs. Toodou(土豆)
After Google bought Youtube for 1.65 billion dollars, Youtube MIC(made in China)-Toodou gets a lot of attention. If you are somehow like me, like reading technology news across the Pacific occean, you will notice there is Chinese search engine that a MIC of Google, Beidu, at the first trading day at NYSE, the price of Beidu jumped over 200 dollars per share.
Does Toodou has a Beidu future, too?
I doubt it. Youtube takes off on its speciality in video uploading and sharing, and speed of the website plays a big role in Youtube's success. However, I tried out Toodou and found it is sooo slow. It takes 15 seconds waiting for the homepage to open, and after clicking a title, it takes 30-40 seconds for the video to appear. While I tested Youtube, both tasks take less than 5 seconds.
